242, Uchiha's arrogance
The Uchiha clan is reluctant to return to Konoha.
This point, neither Danzo, Onoki and others, nor Kakashi and Tenzo, did not think of it.
So Kakashi was in a hurry, hoping that he could convince the Uchiha clan to change their minds.
Unfortunately, the other party didn't buy it.
"Kakashi, if the Uchiha is the master of Konoha as you said, then we won't be pushed to the edge of the village."
"The Uchiha have never had any obligation to save Konoha, can't they save themselves?"
Iron Fire and Itachi spoke one after another, unimpressed by Kakashi and Tenzo's bows.
Zhishui on the side did not say a word and did not make any statement.
In the past, he took it as his duty to protect the village, but it wasn't until he died once that he finally saw everything clearly, and now he has no feelings for Konoha at all.
"This ......"
Kakashi and Tenzo couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
They joined the Uchiha camp in the first place to help the Uchiha defeat the ninja alliance, and let the Uchiha drive out the group and re-enter the Konoha master.
As a result, now, the Uchiha clan doesn't look down on Konoha at all and doesn't bother to go back.
When Tsunade saw this scene, he sighed in his heart, and then opened his mouth to help Kakashi and said:
"I see the same thing as Kakashi.
When Konoha was established, it was Madara Uchiha who gave the name to the village. And my grandfather named the position of village chief Hokage, originally because Madara wanted to be the village chief, because the fire escape is a symbol of the Uchiha clan.
I think it's time for the title Hokage to return to its original meaning, with the ninjas of the Uchiha clan, you say? ”
Tsunade's words were obviously more effective than Kakashi's words.
The Hokage is the dream of countless Konoha ninjas, and it was also an obsession that the Uchiha clan can't let go of.
Madara ran away from Konoha angrily because he failed to choose the Hokage, and in the decades since, the Uchiha clan has become farther and farther away from the Hokage.
And now, this name that once made Uchiha dream is right in front of him, and he is at his fingertips.
Does the Uchiha want to go back to Konoha or do you want to be the Hokage?
This question should still be answered by the patriarch Fuyue or Xuan, after all, the candidate for the Hokage must be one of the two.
So, everyone's eyes looked at the two of them.
Fugaku never wanted to be a Hokage.
Because in his heart, there is only one candidate for the Hokage, and that is his brother-in-law Uchiha Break.
Whether in terms of strength, prestige or leadership, no one is more qualified than Judgment.
With the great achievement of suppressing the Four Shadows and eliminating tens of thousands of ninja alliance forces with his own strength, once he becomes the Hokage, he can be on the same level as the first generation.
And Fugaku remembers.
Hatsuka had said in a joking tone that if he became the Hokage, the first thing he would do was to tear down the Hokage building and rebuild a nine-story watchtower called the castle tower.
Then he took a folding fan and stood on top of the castle tower, overlooking all living beings, and claimed to be a heavenly man.
So.
"Break, are you ready to become a heavenly man? No matter what time it is, the Uchiha clan and I will fully support you. ”
Fu Yue looked at his brother-in-law with an expectant gaze.
However, he seemed to be a little absent-minded, and saw him stand up and drop two sentences:
"When I went out in the morning, Samui said she was not feeling well and that I had to go back and see. Here's the matter, patriarch, you just have an idea. ”
After speaking, he walked away in the stunned eyes of everyone.
Before walking out of the conference room, they passed by the four shadows, and the four of them all looked at each other for a while, showing varying degrees of fear.
Especially Tuan Zang, the moment he made contact with the broken line of sight, the latter's playful eyes made him feel deep fear and uneasiness.
However, hearing that Xuan didn't seem interested in being Hokage, Danzo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Bang dang!
With the sound of the door of the conference room closing, he left.
Aggressive.
Fuyue frowned, tapped a finger on the tabletop, and pondered for a long time.
Subsequently, he made an astonishing decision.
Swish.
I saw Fuyue stand up, look at Kakashi levelly, and speak:
"Kakashi, as you can see, the Uchiha clan has no intention of returning to Konoha.
However, as a thank you for all your efforts over the past year, we will help you become the sixth Hokage! ”
What?
As soon as these words came out, Kakashi was stunned and looked surprised.
He came back to his senses and hurriedly waved his hand to refuse:
"Patriarch Fugaku, you are exalting me too much, how can I be qualified to serve as the Hokage......"
Kakashi never expected that the Uchiha clan would be so generous and directly give him the position of the sixth Hokage for this small role.
You know, he is only 21 years old this year, which is younger than when his teacher, the fourth generation of Hokage, was in power.
Moreover, when Bo Feng Shuimen became the Hokage, he had already made great achievements in the Third Ninja World War, and it was a yellow flash that shocked the ninja world, which can be said to be the desire of the people.
In contrast, Kakashi's foundation and heritage are much weaker, and he is really not enough to serve as the Hokage.
But...... There is one person who is qualified.
Thinking of this, Kakashi glanced at Tsunade and made a suggestion:
"It's better to let Tsunade-sama become the Hokage, and Tenzo and I will return to our posts in the shadows and assist Tsunade-sama in managing Konoha."
In Kakashi's mind, the best candidate for Hokage is actually Fugaku, because this Uchiha patriarch is mature and steady, and takes the overall situation into account, and is more suitable to be the head of a village than invincible but self-defeating.
However, since the Uchiha clan is unwilling to return to Konoha, they can only settle for the next best thing.
Tsunade is the granddaughter of the original Hokage, and her roots are red; He was also one of the three ninjas of Konoha and made many feats for Konoha on the battlefield; He is also a medical saint, who has cured and saved countless people, and is respected by the entire ninja world.
No matter which way you think about it, she is the right person to serve as the sixth generation.
It's a pity that Kakashi is a little wishful thinking.
"What bullshit Hokage, the old lady is not right, don't come to me!"
Tsunade refused without hesitation, glaring at Kakashi, leaving the latter embarrassed.
If she really wanted to be the Hokage, she would have fought a long time ago, instead of leaving Konoha and not going back for more than ten years.
Not to mention, being the Hokage with the support of the Uchiha clan is a very humiliating thing for Tsunade.
She has always loved face, so she won't agree.
The Hokage was originally a name that made countless people steal their heads, but at this time, they were rejected by the three of Broken, Kakashi, and Tsunade one after another.
It's as if the name of the Hokage is not worth mentioning garbage.
The situation was so embarrassing for a while.
Tuan Zang's eyes flashed, but he completely relaxed, silent on the surface, and secretly happy in his heart.
From this point of view, the Uchiha clan is ironclad and will not return to Konoha, and Tsunade is unwilling to be the Hokage, and Kakashi is not capable of being the Hokage.
This also means that Danzang is still the fifth generation Hokage, and Konoha Village still has the final say.
Really.
"Well, that's all for today."
Fu Yue looked at the four shadows, his eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "Everyone, you can go back with your army." Keep in mind, however, that according to the defeat agreement, all compensation must be received within a month. Otherwise, when the time comes, we Uchiha clan will not mind visiting in person. ”
When the four of them heard this, their faces changed, and they immediately got up and left in a hurry.
Looking at the back of the four shadows leaving.
"Father, are you going to just let the group hide back in Konoha like this?"
Itachi suppressed his anger and was unwilling.
All along, he wanted to kill Tuanzang with his own hands and take revenge on the water, but he never got his wish.
Especially right now, the Uchiha clan has obviously won a big victory, and even let Danzou retreat and return to Konoha to continue to be the Hokage.
Itachi can't accept it.
When Fu Yue heard this, he frowned, and then sternly admonished the ferret:
"This matter, in fact, is what your uncle meant, you don't want to pestering Tuan Zang anymore."
What does my uncle mean?
Itachi froze in place, stunned.
Fugaku shook his head. In fact, he can't quite understand why he has repeatedly connived at Tuan Zang, but since it is a decision to break, there must be a deep meaning.
At the end of the meeting, the members of the village committee were disbanded.
After going out.
"Senior, what should we do next?" Tenzo's face was confused.
Kakashi's brow furrowed, pondering.
Is it really necessary for him to drive ducks to the shelves by himself and become the sixth Hokage? However, even after becoming Hokage, Kakashi doesn't think he has the power to change the status quo of Konoha.
That's when it happened.
"Why don't you ask the villagers of Konoha what they think on this issue?" Tsunade's voice suddenly came from behind the two of them.
Kakashi was stunned for a moment, and quickly bowed to Tsunade, and said sincerely:
"Tsunade-sama, please advise."
Syllable!
Tsunade stepped forward, patted Kakashi on the shoulder, and said something that broke the mystery:
"With the arrogant character of the Uchiha clan, they will never take the initiative to return to Konoha, haven't you seen this clearly? Unless......
The villagers of Konoha are willing to apologize for their past attitude towards the Uchiha clan, and they petition collectively, and even send representatives to the mountain cemetery in person, begging the Uchiha clan to return, and perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope. ”
Originally...... That's right.
Kakashi's pupils dilated, and it finally dawned on him, and he figured out many things in an instant.
In this world, apart from the Uchiha himself, the person who knows this race best seems to have to be Tsunade-sama.
Come to think of it.
"Tsunade-sama, I see."
Kakashi nodded, and then instructed Tenzo, "Let's go, go back to Konoha!" ”
……
The remnants of the four ninja villages withdrew from the mountain cemetery.
When they came, they were violent, and when they returned, they were only miserable and depressed, and those who survived by luck will also be accompanied by the psychological shadow of the war.
Konoha's forces suffered particularly heavy casualties, with only 6,000 of the 20,000 troops surviving, with less than a third surviving.
For more than a year, the successive wars have almost wiped out the ninjas of Konoha.
For example, Konoha's ace unit, Pig Deer Butterfly, suffered a heavy blow. Among the patriarchs of the three major families, Kaichi Yamanaka died, Nara Shikahisa fell unconscious, and Akido Dingza was seriously injured.
In addition, Hinagi, the patriarch of the Hyuga clan, also lost an arm and a leg in this war and became disabled.
As for the other small and medium-sized ninja clans, the casualties were even worse, and even the entire ninjas of the clan were all dead, and the clan was directly wiped out.
On the way back to Konoha, many Konoha ninjas died of serious injuries, and a thousand people died one after another.
The last to return to Konoha was less than five thousand.
These people are almost the last combat power of Konoha, and they also include many old, young, sick and disabled.
Danzou didn't care about any of that.
As soon as he returned, he ordered the shadows to loot the money, and it was necessary to collect the war reparations in the shortest possible time.
Of the one billion indemnities demanded by the Uchiha clan, Konoha accounted for 300 million, which is not a small amount for today's Konoha Village.
If you can't get this money within a month, Danzo's Hokage position won't be kept.
Therefore, he will do whatever it takes, even if it is rushing into the clans of the major ninja clans to rob them, or confiscating the shops and properties of the villagers, he will do everything possible to raise enough 300 million.
For a while, the people of Konoha complained.
What's even more desperate is not only that Konoha has to pay a high war reparation, but that Danzou is still sitting in the Hokage's seat and oppressing the Konoha villagers.
Other than that.
Since the Uchiha clan did not speak, the garrisons of the major ninja villages did not need to evacuate from Konoha.
In other words, the series of unequal agreements signed by the four ninja villages and Konoha before are still valid, which is undoubtedly worse for Konoha.
Now, a new pattern of the ninja world has been formed.
The Uchiha clan is a superior person, the four major ninja villages are superior, and only the Konoha ninja and the villagers are inferior.
After realizing this cruel truth, feelings of despair and resentment gradually spread throughout Konoha Village.
What the villagers hate the most is not the four great ninja villages, let alone the Uchiha, but Danzo.
It was the old thing that made Konoha what it is today, and it was he who led Konoha to its demise step by step.
In such a situation.
The ninjas and villagers of Konoha finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Although there are lessons learned from the extermination of the Sarufei clan, if they don't rise up against Tuanzang's rule, everyone will sooner or later end up with the same fate as the Sarufei clan.
A storm is brewing rapidly inside Konoha.
In the middle of the night, dark clouds obscured the moonlight, and the village was pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers.
In the residence of the Hyuga clan.
The patriarchs of large and small families, such as Hinata, Inoka, Inuzuka, Oil Girl, Wind Festival, Ise, and Mimura, all gathered together and were plotting a coup d'état.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it has been proven time and time again that Danzou can do anything in order to keep the Hokage's position. If we continue like this, it is tantamount to a slow death, we must unite and fight with Tuanzang! ”
Hinata Hinata said sharply, he lost a leg and an arm, and his whole body exuded a tragic and tragic momentum, making people have no doubt that this Hyuga patriarch would definitely fight with Tuan Zang.
The Hyuga clan is not only Hinata, but also hundreds of people who were brutally gouged out of their white eyes and reduced to blindness under the orders of Tuanzang.
The will for a coup d'état is the strongest.
"But can we make it? There were still so many detonation charms buried in the village, all of them were under the control of Danzang, and if he was forced to do so, he would detonate them......"
Someone asked, looking worried.
"Ahem."
Nara Shikahisa's face turned pale, and after coughing twice, he said to everyone, "Over the past year, we have been secretly plotting, taking advantage of the fact that Danzou is not paying attention, replacing most of the detonation charms with fakes that do not explode.
As for the Hokage Rock, although it is closely guarded by the shadows, we can't sneak in, but according to my calculations and analysis, Danzou or Gen Weng is lying!
Even if Danzo detonated the Hokage Rock and caused the mountain behind Konoha to collapse, it would not be powerful enough to bury the entire Konoha area.
In other words, Tuanzang is just bluffing. Ahem......"
After saying that, Lu Jiu coughed again.
When everyone heard this, they still couldn't make up their minds, after all, once a coup d'état was launched, there would be no turning back.
Seeing this, Hinazu shook his head, it seemed that there was only one last way to convince these people.
So, looking into the darkness, he said in a deep voice:
"You two, please show up."
